Keep has plenty of sources. There exist similar articles so it's not wp:or or wp:synth. Dcfc1988 ( talk) 23:02, 21 September 2014 (UTC) reply
"Because other articles exist" is never a reason to keep an article, those articles may be just as inappropriate, or as in this case, much more specific and therefore cite-able. CombatWombat42 ( talk) 15:10, 24 September 2014 (UTC) reply
Yeah they are. CombatWombat42 ( talk) 15:10, 24 September 2014 (UTC) reply
If you are you referring to WP:DEL-REASON #6, it is not sufficient to simply show that there is WP:OR in the article. My reading is that you must show that it is not possible to improve the article to remove it. This is clearly not the case as there are many quality comparison sources already cited. ~ KvnG 17:09, 24 September 2014 (UTC) reply
I see none of the cited comparisons as being particularly valid or useful. There exist counter examples to every comparison in there. All this chart does is say "for most COTS screens these things usually hold true" This kind of chart belongs at anandtech or tom's hardware, not on an encyclopedia as it requires us to make a judgment (not citeable) as to what monitors are included in "COTS" and what "usually" means. If you wanted it to be encyclopedic you should compare how the various technologies work and that would not be a chart, but a textual analysts (something each article does on its own already).

  • Delete The info is not fully covered by the sources, so it is own research contrary to the content guidelines. The Banner  talk 15:51, 24 September 2014 (UTC) reply
  • Keep - This is a perfectly valid and useful comparison. An excellent support article for the Comparison of display technology with much better layout and more information. I would like to see more sourcing to support factual statements made here. And I think DLP should be added to the chart, though the current title is self limiting and while this is under attack, it shouldn't be changed. After we Keep this, it should be added, by me if nobody else does it. Trackinfo ( talk) 09:54, 25 September 2014 (UTC) reply

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
